just got to, we've had a long seven years, so it's nice to get a little refresh. >> summer camp continues on both sides of the bay, a's and giants working towards opening day and getting in some inner squad practices to get ready for thos. the a's open the season july 24th, when they host the angels at the coliseum, a four-game set to open the year. oakland is coming off back-to-back 97-win seasons and wild card game appearances and with the abbreviated schedule, there's no time to waste. >> we are going to approach it just kind of, you know, everything matters, and everything's more intensified. every game is kind of like a playoff meaning. we've got to win and produce. >> continue with the routine, with the mindset that we're playing and it's only 60 games, so it's going to be sprint this year and stuff, marathon. it's going to be exciting. >> that's your look at sports. send it back to you. let's get a check of the weather with lisa argen. lisa, it's going to cool down later this week a little bit but

still pretty hot, right? >> yes, we're going to see that spread from the 60s at the coast to the 90s inland, instead of the triple digits which we have on the docket again for today as you head out towards the delta. look at the haze there from our sutro tower camera, where we have the high pressure overhead, compressing what we have of a marine layer, also some of the pollutants to the surface. if you're going to be out and about today say in newark, over in the east bay, and want to get the dog out for a walk, you're going to want to do it early, because from palo alto to newark, temperatures will be climbing through the 80s in the afernoon. a lot like yesterday, although that sea breeze once again comes into play and it's going to cool us off making it feel good in the afternoon for some of you. the rest of you have to wait for tomorrow, when we see temperatures really cool back. the golden gate bridge here looking pretty nice. you can see a little bit of fog here, a little light wind, and a little more fog this morning than we had yesterday morning. so that's a slight indicator that that onshore flow is going

to be close, and it's going to allow for numbers to just be influenced right at the coast and perhaps locally across the bay, by the afternoon. here is emeryville. a little hazy out there. high relative humidity with that morning dew point up this morning, and that allows for some of the haze, but also the pollution, too. 56 in oakland, as well as mountain view. 60 in san jose. looking at numbers around 50 at the coast, and we've had some upper 40s in the north bay. all the fog here pretty dense in santa cruz, before we clear, to about 80 today. 49 in santa rosa. 48 petaluma. 59 by the delta with the light wind and tempertures will be hot certainly for the delta, and brentwood but it's typically right around 100 this time of year, and that's going to allow for numbers to stay pretty hot, as we get over the east bay hills. here is a look at that finger fog here from the airport, where temperatures yesterday on the peninsula really climbed quickly, today almost the same story. sizzling hot inland.rn

temperatures throughout your monday afternoon and looking at that summer spread for the rest of the week. so about the sea breeze, there's not going to be much wind at all as we get through the first half of your day, but by the afternoon, that sea breeze keeps a little gusty at the coast, up by point reyes but otherwise it's about 15 to maybe 20 miles an hour, after about 4:00 or 5:00. if you're headed in to san francisco, really a nice afternoon. a lot of sunshine from start to finish, and by about 2:00 in the afternoon, topping out in the upper 60s and of course that breeze coming into play by about 4:00 or 5:00. in the south bay, low 90s in san jose, morgan hill about 100 degrees. upper 80s from milpitas, presentwood city san mateo afteooreeel a a temperaturesn a few degrees towards the evening. 72 downtown. looking at 92 in sonoma. look at the heat here, up in lake county though, 100 cloverdale. 99 in lakeport. as we move into the east bay,

temperatures in the low 80s, hayward 85 castro valley. inland a spread of upper 90s to triple digits from concord at 99, looking at 102 today in antioch and brentwood, and about 103 in fairfield. the kaku weather seven-day forecast, today the hottest day out of the next seven, the cooling begins tomorrow, certainly across the bay, and inland, down about ten degrees, looking at tuesday and wednesday, fairly typical with our summer spread, the low clouds at the coast, and looking at numbers in that range that we're used to for july. so this should be a pretty good pattern but we were shy of rainfall so watching for what the winds are going to do, always certainly drying us out for the most part. >> we have to watch the fire danger. thanks, lisa. this marks the halfway point for many college students doing summer internships. nced, others were redesigned to be virtual, an example of the changing ay workplace,ne area.
